WARNING:

L To prevent the risk of fire or electrical

shock, do not expose the product to rain or any type of moisture.

L Unplug the product from power outlets if

it emits smoke, an abnormal smell, or makes an unusual noise. These conditions can cause fire or electric shock. Confirm that smoke has stopped emitting and contact an authorised service centre.

personal medical devices, such as pacemakers or hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF (radio frequency) energy. (The product operates in the frequency range of 5.76 GHz to 5.84 GHz, and the power output is 200 mW (max.).) Do not use the product in health care facilities if any regulations posted in the area instruct you not to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Notice

L Please ensure that a separate

telephone, not dependent on local power, is available for emergency use.

L This equipment will be inoperable when

mains power fails.

TG5921AL_5922AL.book Page 10 Friday, February 24, 2006 3:42 PM

Introduction

L When a failure occurs which results in

the internal parts becoming accessible, disconnect the power supply cord immediately and return the product to an authorised service centre.

L To minimise the possibility of lightning

damage, when you know that a thunderstorm is coming, we recommend that you: – Unplug the telephone line cord from

the phone socket.

CENTRAL location with no obstructions such as walls.

L Raising the antennas vertically. L If you use the handset near a microwave

oven which is being used, noise may be heard. Move away from the microwave oven and closer to the base unit.

L If you use the handset near another

cordless phone’s base unit, noise may be heard. Move away from the other cordless phone’s base unit and closer to your base unit.

L After the handset is fully charged,

displaying “Charge completed”, it may be left on the base unit (or charger) without any ill effect on the battery.

L The battery level may not be displayed

correctly after you replace the battery. In this case, place the handset on the base unit (or charger) and let charge for 7 hours.

Note:

L Battery operating time may be

shortened over time depending on usage conditions and surrounding temperature.

L Battery power is consumed whenever

the handset is off the base unit or charger, even when the handset is not in use. Hence the longer you leave the handset off the base unit or charger, the less time you may actually talk using the handset.
